A former Liverpool star has claimed he'd have Conor Bradley in his team over Manchester City star Kyle Walker.
Liverpool and Man City will go head-to-head on Sunday with the Premier League title race finely poised.
Jurgen Klopp's side currently top the table with 11 games left to play, one point ahead of Pep Guardiola's defending champions.
Some of the best players in the Premier League will take to the pitch at Anfield, with both sides boasting incredible quality in every single position.

That includes the right-back position, with Kyle Walker likely starting for City and Conor Bradley for Liverpool.
Both players are at very different points in their careers; Walker is 33 now and nearing the end of his career, while Bradley is 20 and has been thrust into the spotlight this season thanks to his impressive performances.
Walker may well be one of the most decorated full-backs in football history, but former Liverpool left-back Jose Enrique says he would have Bradley in his team instead.
"On current form, I’d start Conor Bradley at right back over Kyle Walker," Jose Enrique told Grosvenor Sport.
"This kid is really making an impact for Liverpool and they don’t seem to miss Trent Alexander-Arnold at all, so I’d have him over Walker at the moment.
"He’s not put a foot wrong and he’s been flying for them recently – he’s a young boy that’s come in and done unbelievably. "Full credit to Jurgen Klopp for trusting him and some of the other players from the academy over the past few weeks – they’ve been brilliant.
"Obviously as players generally, you can’t really compare them – one has just come into the side and the other is one of the best right backs ever in the Premier League – but on current form, Bradley gets into my combined XI!"
